AF 12198 is a peptide that selectively binds Interleukin-1 (IL-1) receptor and blocks in vivo responses to IL-1. The interleukin-1 receptor can activate the innate immune response by binding to cytokines. Dysregulation of cytokine production can lead to aberrant immune cells activation that could result in auto-inflammatory disorders. AF 12198 shows anti-inflammatory activity in vivo.
